Piece By Piece (cover) Lyrics - Jamie L. Harrison

And all I remember is your back 

Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past 

I traveled fifteen hundred miles to see you 

Begged you to want me, but you didn't want to 

But piece by piece he collected me 

Up off the ground where you abandoned things, yeah 

Piece by piece he filled the holes 

That you burned in me at six years old 

And you know, 

He never walks away 

He never asks for money, 

He takes care of me 

He loves me 

Piece by piece he restored my faith 

That a man can be kind and a father could... stay 

And all of your words fall flat 

I made something of myself and now you wanna come back 

But your love—it isn't free, it has to be earned 

Back then I didn't have anything you needed so I was worthless 

But piece by piece he collected me 

Up off the ground, where you abandoned things, yeah 

Piece by piece he filled the holes 

That you burned in me at six years old 

And you know, 

He never walks away 

He never asks for money, 

He takes care of me 

'Cause he loves me 

Piece by piece he restored my faith 

That a man can be kind and a father could stay 

Piece by piece [6x] 

Piece by piece I fell far from the tree 

I will never leave her like you left me 

And she will never have to wonder her worth 

Because unlike you I'm going to put her first 

And you know, 

He'll never walk away, 

He'll never break her heart 

He'll take care of things, 

He'll love her 

And piece by piece he'll restore my faith 

That a man can be kind and a father should be great 

Piece by piece [3x]
